Do eat your carnitine

It's been proven that carnitine aids in fat metabolism because it has properties that improve the process of beta-oxidation in the body (or how the body uses fat). This molecule is often found as a synthetic compound in supplements and therefore poorly absorbed compared to the kind contained in foods. You can find it in meats (especially sheep), dairy products and avocado. So skip the supplements, and eat real food from your fridge instead!
